Custom Painting Service
Chatelet has been painting vintage furniture pieces to sell in the shop for over 20 years and we are now offering to paint customers' own furniture as a service. Painting is such a great way to refresh and update your faithful old pieces of furniture.
Benjamin Moore® ADVANCE® Paint
Châtelet uses high quality Benjamin Moore® ADVANCE® paints in a pearl finish. ADVANCE premium quality paint is a low VOC interior paint that gives furniture a hard, durable finish once cured. We recommend a pearl finish because it's similar to a satin finish but not too shiny and more wipeable than a matte finish.
Distressed Finish
Châtelet custom painted furniture is sprayed using a compressor and a spray gun. We give all pieces a light sanding, one coat of primer and two coats of Benjamin Moore ADVANCE paint. We don't offer faux finishes but we can provide a distressed finish. To create a distressed finish, we sand the edges and details of the piece to give it a more rustic, antique look.
Paint Colours
Our standard colours include Oxford White, White Down, Metropolitan, Amherst Grey, and Wrought Iron. For custom colours, we will reach out to discuss your design once you place your order.
To begin the process, please email photos of the piece or pieces and a general description of what you would like done and we will send back a quote. Pick up and delivery is available for an extra fee.
